Memories are Made of This

- Eric R. Kandel, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, examines whether the brain's two major memory systems, implicit and explicit, have any common features. Implicit and explicit memory both have a short-term component lasting minutes, such as remembering the telephone number you just looked up, and a long-term component that lasts days, weeks, or a lifetime, such as remembering your mother's birthday. Short-term memory is mediated by modifications of existing proteins, leading to temporary changes in the strength of communication between nerve cells. In contrast, long-term memory involves alterations of gene expression, synthesis of new proteins and growth of new synaptic connections.
I came across the DVD that has this lecture and I watched this lecture with rapt attention. I need to watch it probably 3 more times to comprehend it, but I WILL.
Thank you for great lecture
Thank you so much for making such a well-constructed, interesting lecture!
Investigator Eric R. Kandel is a great expresioner!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful information!!
Beautiful and simple explanation. Thank you Genius !!
I came here for more detail while reading his book “Reductionism in Art and Brain Science”. His book is interesting but I find this lecture even more fascinating.
This is a great video on memory functions related to LTM, STM, implicit a d explicit memory. Also, there Is an interesting bit about Alzheimer's toward the end which explains the biology of the disease.
Thank you very much for sharing.
That's a tough question, though. You likely know a lot more than you're aware of knowing, and have a lot of memories you don't even know you still have. With how much information you can absorb in one day or one year, it's easy to wonder if your brain might "fill up". And why do some people seem to retain insane amounts of knowledge when some of us can't even remember where we left our keys?
Those memories we don’t know we have! If only we could turn on the light.
amazing video, thank you!
Wonderful lectures to propagate one's brain.
Thank you!
Great stuff espacially because it is done by Kandel himself, the person whom the noble price was awarded to for his work about learning between two cells. But just tell me, why is it not allowed to watch it on Ipod??
Greate Thanks.
I hope this helps me for the Psychology test.
Unfortunately, a lot of my short-term memory goes directly to long term memories, or used to before the lobotomy. Now it still does, just slower. Prior, it made it hard to learn because I remember the wrong things. My short-term memory is shitty.
We had to do an essay on this
Adenylyl cyclase, adenylate cyclase, or adenyl cyclase? I love how many different names this enzyme is recognised under and how much fuss it causes.
is it a side effect or intended?
wouldn't it be great to have a version with just the beef? No 50 piece orchestra, no chap saying how wonderful everything is and how thrilled he is to introduce someone who is going to say how wonderful everything is and how thrilled he is to introduce..... and then the chap at home drinking coffee and cutting hios toenails...... how about the version with just the talk and none of the hollywood awards ceremony?
Just wondering, given that new memories require new neurons and synapses, does this mean that we have to forget old stuff in order to learn new stuff? Cause obviously there is only so much physical space for new neurons to be created.
This theory is entirely false. In reality, nobody has a clue regarding the storing of memories. These are all wild theories. In reality, memory (consciousness, in fact) is impossible in the brain.
@thisisshitluigi If you are watching programs like this, reading, and thinking, I would say you are not wasting your time. I spent my summers outside, chasing girls, drinking, sometimes doing drugs (no heavy drugs though), and fooling around. It hasn't really left me with anything but some good memories. I wish I had spent my time reading and thinking more...

It's absurd to think of memory as stored within the brain given the anatomy and physiology of the neuron. Neurons with their dendrites and axon are mere signal generating and propagating mechanisms. They're of the nature of a flow (as in a data communications network), not a store. Neuronal action potentials ("spikes") last for only milliseconds; therefore they would not make even working memory possible. Looping neuronal topologies would also be a flow as in a feedback circuit. It would be quite outrageous to regard these as storage locations. As the brain is all neuronal, therefore it's impossible for the brain to act as a storehouse of memories (on account of the nature of the neuron).
Therefore it's inferred that there's an extra encephalic (transcendental) entity connected to the brain, a soul, an immaterial conscious personality of remembering nature, which is really the reservoir of all memories. The ancient philosopher-scientists were not wrong. In fact, they allowed their intellect to stretch freely without getting cramped by any agenda.
post zombie apocalyps attendence if ... did they keep listening?
!!!!
I wish they would research "M". My videos will show you what 'M' is
Why again am I paying a ridiculous amount of money to study in a shitty university that doesn't give lectures half as interesting as what you present on RUclips?
Maybe I'm not as smart as my mammy always said...
